If I can smoke you then that purely states that McNeil/AWE has far superior MOJO to your ABT/OEM setup. So what do you say?

Default this is what i say BK Beast.....I'd like to meet up and race *any* K04 guy just to see the gains....

it would be nice to see some K04 timeslips...but I'm 90% sure nothing has ever been posted...

i can care less about whose dp's are being run....i just want to race next to a K04 dude...hopefully we wouldn't make them feel like the upgrade wasn't a total waste.

Default Here's your answer, at least part of it....

It seems the problem most KO4 owners have is the clutch - they can't launch hard.

So, here's a vidoe of Zerin's APR KO4 car (not tuned) against an APR DP+Chip car. From 50 mph in 6th gear I believe.<ul><li><a href="http://videos.imolas4.com/zerin/k04vsstg2plus.mpg">Click here for vid</a></li></ul>

Default Sounds good But I know for a fact that some not all K04 are well worth it

Hands down there is a **** load of power to be had when done right. There is only so much air the little K03 can push before it goes static

50 mph in 6th gear? Should really be in 3rd to have any chance.

Default I think they wanted to remove a lot of variable's with this

and just so the boost and power that being made w/o having to worry about shifting, gear selection, etc. Just make it simple and straight forward.

It's not like the stg 2+ car was going to win, so it doesn't matter if he would have downshifted.

I think they just wanted to show the difference between the 2 in a simple environment.

Default all this "not tuned stuff"...they have to mean ECU &

finding proper fuel system components.

why not just wait for a complete package then?
